[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] psych0phobia:
Known Issues

The Recents dialog doesn't accept touches when launched from a full-screen app. The workaround is to pull down the notification window first, then long-press the home icon.

So far, I have been unsuccessful at finding a fix for this.

Updating the Amazon Mobile (Tablet) app from the Play Store will cause the "Shop" link on Amazon's Launcher to stop working. There is no workaround - despite being marked as an update, these two apps are not equivalent. If you do accidentally update the app, just use Google Play Store to uninstall the update and everything will return to normal.

This cannot be fixed due to the two apps sharing the same Android identifier.

If no accounts have been added yet, the Accounts & Sync page is completely blank. Just press the menu button to add an account.

While awkward, this is the intended behavior.

If the first Google account is added by launching Play Store, you may need to wipe Play Store's data before the "My Apps" page will work properly. The workaround is to add your account through Account & Sync settings, or by launching Gmail or Talk instead.

This will not be fixed, as it seems to be a bug in the Play Store / Google Framework interaction.

The Amazon Accessibility options override the advanced options. For example, if you enable LockerPro in the advanced options, then change the Voice Guide setting from the main options, LockerPro will become disabled.

This will not be "fixed." The Amazon options are left available so that the accessibility options can easily be reset to an Amazon standard configuration.

If an app attempts to launch Accessibility options, it will FC (the intent listener is missing from Settings). You will simply need to go to Advanced Settings in Accessibility and enable the service in question manually.

Still investigating fixes for this.

Amazon's Keyboard options handling is absurd. For english users, "English (US)" is AOSP and "English (United States)" is Swype (similar for UK). For other languages you'll probably need to try the available options to figure out which is which - the order seems to be somewhat random.

I may look into changing the keyboard selector, but it is not a high priority.

Voice/Video chat functionality in Google+ Hangouts and Google Talk does not work. Attempting to use it may cause your Kindle to become unstable until rebooted (something wreaks havoc with the audio system).

This cannot currently be fixed. Someone out there please prove me wrong! ;)

If there are lots of notifications, the icons will overlap the clock.

I don't intend to fix this, as the effort involved just isn't worth it. It's also fairly common to encounter this bug in any Android ROM that uses a centered clock.

Facelock does not work with a PIN set. It does, however, work correctly if you use a Pattern instead.

This is probably fixable, I just need to track down where exactly in the code the PIN is overriding Facelock.

Change Log

2.0.1 - 2013/04/20:

Updated the base OS to 7.3.1.

2.0 - Not publicly released:

Updated the base OS to 7.3.0.

Host file ad-blocking is no longer enabled by default. If you want this, enable it in the AdAway app that is now included. If you don't, feel free to uninstall AdAway.

The status bar now shows notification icons instead of the "My Kindle" text.

The lowest four brightness settings are now usable.

The menu button on the Navbar should now be present in all non-Amazon apps. Some apps fail to request it, and it sometimes get confused on its own. This change does add a bit of visual clutter but should prevent all of those "where'd the menu go?" moments. Note that Amazon apps will continue to do whatever they want with the Navbar buttons as they tend to crash if they don't get their way.

App suppression has been removed from Amazon's Launcher (Home). This allows you to launch things like Amazon MP3 or the App Store from their icons instead of from the menus. It also allows you to add them to the favorites window.

The certificate fixing process now only happens during Kinology's install process, so apps won't suddenly stop working if they're using generic certs.

Most recent Amazon apps integrated with the system (includes Kindle Free Time).

Gmail, Google Play, and GmsCore updated to the most recent versions.

Completely overhauled the installation process. Boot/Recovery are also now included.
